Chapter 2029: Chapter 2230: The Truth Comes to Light!!!

Liang Xiaohan had actually been dealing with Hao Jian for quite a while now; how could she not know what kind of person he was. If she didn’t have hard evidence, Hao Jian would definitely die rather than admit to anything he’d done. So now, seeing him like this, she knew for sure it had to be that thing, and if she didn’t have proof in hand, there was no way Hao Jian would cough up even half a word of the truth.

But she didn’t have any evidence right now. Knowing that if she kept arguing like this, Hao Jian absolutely wouldn’t say a word, she could only glare at him furiously.

Hao Jian, being stared down by Liang Xiaohan like that, when he saw how she looked totally helpless against him, a faint smugness quietly climbed onto his face, though he quickly reined it in. Then he said, "Well? You believe me now, right?"

Liang Xiaohan rolled her eyes at him, and just when Hao Jian thought she’d let him off, she suddenly turned around, pulled a slip of paper off the coffee table, and tossed it at him. "To prevent a repeat offense, we’ll sign and stamp this and lay down three rules. Otherwise I’m definitely going to get to the bottom of this."

Hao Jian froze, not expecting Liang Xiaohan to actually be playing for real this time. His gaze slid to the slip of paper in her hand. On it was written: One, you must be home before eleven at the latest; two, you must not drink outside or talk with other women; three, you must not make any female friends. Above terms, if you violate any one of them, Hao Jian must admit his mistake of his own accord and is forbidden to sleep at night, and must kneel on a washboard all night as punishment.

Hao Jian stared and his eyes went wide. What the hell is this even? How is this "three rules," this was clearly putting shackles on his personal freedom. Fine, the "home before eleven" bit he could live with, and the "no drinking" part was whatever, but "no female friends at all" — what the hell was that?

There are only men and women in this world; if he couldn’t have any female friends at all, wouldn’t life be incredibly dull and boring? What fun would there be in life then? Every day he’d just have a bunch of dudes circling around him. And he did know a few girls at school, like Zhang Danlin and He Qiqi. According to what Liang Xiaohan had written here, wouldn’t that mean he couldn’t even talk to them anymore?

"No. I’m not agreeing to this. What kind of ’three rules’ is this, this is straight-up interfering with my personal freedom!" Hao Jian protested strongly after reading it.

Seeing his reaction, Liang Xiaohan immediately said discontentedly, "Protest? Protest invalid! You think protesting does anything? All you can do is obey and sign this agreement. Otherwise I have plenty of ways to make you suffer."

This was the first time Hao Jian had ever been threatened like this by someone, so he said, "Why should I? You have no right to control me!"

Liang Xiaohan just gave a cold laugh, took out her phone, and said, "No right? Well my cousin definitely has the right, doesn’t she? I’m acting under her orders, to manage you, you scheming, dirty-minded man. Hurry up and sign, and follow it properly. Otherwise when my cousin comes over, just watch how I complain about you to her!"

When Liang Xiaohan said this, her aura was full-on. When she prepared all this, it was like it had never even crossed her mind that Hao Jian would dare disobey, so she was overflowing with confidence, not doubting for a second that Hao Jian would sign this agreement.

Sure enough, when Hao Jian heard her bring up Liang Yuwei, his attitude changed on the spot. A minute ago he’d still been all "I’d rather die than surrender," and suddenly his tone flipped. "Fine, I’ll sign, okay? I’ll sign."

He immediately snatched the paper from Liang Xiaohan’s hand, and she’d been ready for that, instantly handing him a pen. So Hao Jian signed his name on this totally unfair "three rules" agreement and pressed his fingerprint on it.

Holding the agreement with Hao Jian’s signature and handprint on it, Liang Xiaohan’s face was full of smiles. She carefully tucked the agreement away, then looked at Hao Jian with a wicked grin. "Since you’ve already signed and sealed it, you’d better stick to everything in the agreement. Otherwise you’ll be kneeling on the washboard all night."

Hao Jian just rolled his eyes at her and ignored her.

Then, Liang Xiaohan suddenly turned and walked over to the door, dragging out a washboard. "Here! We didn’t even have this thing at home originally, but since I’ve decided to make you kneel, of course I came prepared and bought one. In future, if you mess up, you’ll be kneeling on this washboard all night reflecting on yourself."

As she spoke, she kept casting a few mischievous looks at Hao Jian, like she could already see him kneeling on the washboard in her mind. And when Hao Jian saw that she’d even prepared the washboard in advance, he was stunned all over again. People say the most vicious thing in the world is a woman’s heart — turns out that couldn’t be more accurate.

This whole thing was clearly something Liang Xiaohan had planned out long ago. The so-called "three rules" and signing and stamping — and now even the washboard already bought and ready. If this wasn’t premeditated, what was it? She’d obviously dug a pit and was just waiting for him to jump in. This was the first time he’d ever taken a fall in a woman’s hands, and it had to be a girl like Liang Xiaohan who got him.

He was more than a little annoyed, snorted coldly, and went straight to wash up. After that, he basically ignored Liang Xiaohan. Even though she kept chattering nonstop in his ear, totally showing off, he didn’t pay her the slightest attention.

After that, the two of them slowly headed to school and started the day’s classes. Normally Liang Xiaohan didn’t talk much in class, but for some reason she was extra chatty today, and especially show-offy, like she was deliberately putting on a performance for Hao Jian. The more she saw him looking unhappy, the happier she got.

Hao Jian looked all rebellious and sulky, mocking her in his heart. Hah, women!

During morning reading, Li Weiwei came to the classroom once. When he saw her walk in, she’d already changed out of yesterday’s outfit and into a new set of clothes. But it still inevitably reminded Hao Jian of last night. The moment he thought of last night, his mind started drifting.

But Li Weiwei just gave him a meaningful look and actually didn’t come over to give him trouble. He originally thought maybe Li Weiwei didn’t know what had happened later last night, and maybe figured he’d left without saying anything because something came up and he just went.

But gradually, he started to realize he had gotten it all wrong.

The reason Li Weiwei hadn’t called him out earlier was because dragging him out for a talk first thing in the morning would definitely set off a wave of gossip from the students, wondering what Hao Jian had done this time. So, mindful of that, even though she was clearly in a bad mood when she saw him this morning, she still held it in.

Then, the fourth period was supposed to be history, but once class started, the history class rep said the teacher had something to do this period and wouldn’t be coming, and told everyone to study on their own. Not long after, He Qiqi suddenly got called out, and when she came back she walked straight over to Hao Jian’s desk and told him the homeroom teacher wanted to see him. So he went out.

He’d originally thought Li Weiwei wasn’t going to come for him anymore, but he didn’t expect that in the end she still did. And to avoid suspicion, she’d even deliberately called He Qiqi out first, then had her come back to call him. He suddenly felt like this was not going to be simple.

He walked out, and as he stepped outside, Fatty and Hu Lai gave him a few meaningful looks, wondering what he’d done this time to get called out by Li Weiwei again. But Li Weiwei calling him out was already pretty much an everyday thing, so no one thought too much about it.

Only Liang Xiaohan, when Hao Jian walked out, watched him with a meaningful look and her mind started spinning in a totally different direction.

Once Hao Jian went out, Li Weiwei was standing in the corridor with her arms crossed, waiting for him. This Li Weiwei was different from last night’s Li Weiwei. Right now she was radiating a powerful aura.

Hao Jian saw her and already had a bad feeling, then slowly walked over.

"Come with me." Li Weiwei’s tone was icy.

"Oh." Hao Jian answered and followed behind her, walking slowly.

He’d thought she would take him to the office to interrogate him. That way there would be other teachers around, and there were some things Li Weiwei wouldn’t dare say out loud. But he’d guessed wrong. Li Weiwei wasn’t taking him to the office at all — she took him straight out of the teaching building.

Right then he knew this wasn’t good, because this path led to Li Weiwei’s teacher’s dorm room. What kind of thing couldn’t be said in the office, that she had to pick a private, empty place to talk? A bad premonition hit him. He had a feeling Li Weiwei was definitely looking for him about last night.

Could it be that what happened afterward had been exposed? That Li Weiwei had somehow found out he’d only left after peeking at her naked body? He thought about it, but then felt it was impossible. He’d left so suddenly, how could Li Weiwei possibly think in that direction? At most she’d think he had something urgent and just left first, no way would she think of that.

But then, following Li Weiwei’s pace step by step, as he kept replaying everything from last night in his head, by the time they reached the door of her dorm, his brows suddenly knit together.

"This is bad."

A jolt went through his heart. He suddenly remembered that when he’d accidentally caught that first glimpse of Li Weiwei’s naked body last night, he’d had a massive nosebleed. He’d wiped it with tissues and then just tossed the whole bunch straight into the trash can.

Which meant, because he’d left in such a hurry last night, he’d completely forgotten about that. And when Li Weiwei came out later, she might have seen them.
